How could you broaden your view about our world just by learning one foreign language? This question can be always challenged by so many people, but I do believe that you can open your eyes more widely than before if you learn a foreign language.
How could it be? When you learn some language, you must touch new things.
For example, if you try to learn Chinese, you will know that Chinese characters are difficult to take down for you.
This is new, for you always write letters.
And another example, if you learn Japanese, you will know what is Hiragana and what is Katakana.
Definitely they are not very easy to learn, but you have just seen the diversity of our human society.
So this is a way to broaden your horizon.
Then I suppose, you all like traveling.
When you plan to visit to a foreign land, you will think that you can understand more things than you have expected once you can speak this language.
Definitely you cannot understand all of the things people speak in their mother tongue, but you can learn that their ways of talking are different from yours.
You know that English and Japanese have very different orders of speaking.
This is another way to broaden your horizon.
And when you learn one new language, you will consider what kind of means you may take.
Some people choose to go to a training center, others choose to use some software to learn.
In this time you will find that there are so many ways to learn a new language.
But if you don't learn this language you will know little about this part.
To be honest, this is also one way of broadening your horizon.
At last, I want to say that you will get more than the three benefits once you choose to learn one foreign language.
It is not only a way of learning, but also a way of experiencing.
